Donald Trump bans Univision staff from his Miami golf resort

By DYLAN BYERS

Donald Trump sent a letter to Univision CEO and president Randy Falco on Friday informing him that "no Univision officer or representative" is allowed to use his Trump National Doral, the resort and golf club immediately adjacent to Univision offices in Miami, the On Media blog has learned.

The move is the latest in a public dispute that started Thursday when Univision announced it would end its business relationship with the Miss Universe Organization, which is co-owned by Trump and NBCUniversal, based on what it described as Trump's "insulting remarks about Mexican immigrants" during the launch of his presidential campaign. Trump later announced that he would sue Univision for breach of contract and defamation, and accused Univision of defaulting on an "iron-clad" $13.5 million contract, which he said it had no right to terminate.

Yes. You do not get it. That is why you are a Yankee. And thanks for making that clear with your username.

What would you expect from a Spanish language broadcast company? They want to grow their market. IMO they are a monopoly and need the govt to break them up just like they did to AT&T.

Maybe a dumb question, but just how someone at the Golf Club know if you work for Univision when you call for a tee time...?

I imagine they use a corporate account for golf and events.

I was telling my Mom that Donald Trump is one of the few people who will get down in the mud and roll around with you. He will do it better than you and win.

Let’s just get one thing straight: if someone who insults claims to be polite, I’ll point it out.

If more Republicans were willing to treat members of the mainstream media that way, I have a feeling the country would look a whole lot different.

Hi 1rudeboy,

I’ve never looked at it as being a Southerner; I’ve always viewed it as being transparent with integrity.

When asked whether he supported South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley’s decision to call for the Confederate battle flag to be taken down from out front of the State Capitol building, Trump said he did.

“I would take it down, yes,” the billionaire real estate mogul said. “I think they should put it in a museum and respect whatever it is you have to respect.”

I don't see any cowering or apologizing there. Just because you revere that flag doesn't mean everyone has to. I've been reading FReepers making the point that it was the Dems who put it up in the first place, yet somehow anyone who doesn't rally around it now is a coward and a traitor, whether it ever meant anything to them or not. Doesn't make much sense to me.

You have to hand it to The Donald: he understands leverage and he uses it.

"I don’t know, this is not the Repub-E way. Why isn’t he cowering and apologizing?"

I find that somewhat appealing. I find the republican way repulsive.


Um, that was sarcasm.

Wish we had a congress that knew how to do it.

Well, Republicans use it — against each other.

LOL...more spin from the Trumpers.

The only candidate that came out strong for the flag, or the right of states to fly the flag, was Cruz.

Taking it down...shows his stripes.

Where did he say states don’t have the right to fly it? You are the one spinning here. It was the elected governor who wants to take it down. If the majority of those in SC disagree they can vote her out. It may be hard for you to understand, but most Americans don’t view flying the confederate battle flag on government buildings as some great principle. According to the polls most southerners don’t either.
